Shell Turbo® Oils T are premium quality lubricating oils designed to provide excellent lubrication of steam turbines and many other industrial applications. These oils are made from severely hydroprocessed (API Group II) base oils, which have been carefully selected to provide satisfactory viscosity/temperature characteristics, low foaming tendencies and good water separation properties. In addition, they contain proven additives to protect equipment against rusting and to resist oxidation for long service life. Shell Turbo Oils T are available in four ISO viscosity grades from 32 to 100. Grade nomenclature conforms to the ASTM/ISO viscosity system.

Turbine Applications Shell Turbo® Oils T have a long and successful record of providing dependable turbine lubrication with excellent performance. Shell Turbo® Oils T meet the requirements of major turbine builders including GE, Siemens, Westinghouse, ABB Alstom, Elliot and Demag Delaval Steam Turbines. The appropriate grade of Shell Turbo® Oil T used in a given application should be in accordance with the viscosity recommendation of the equipment manufacturer. General recommendations for the various kinds of turbines are:
